Когда я составлял свой топ фантастики, я также собирал в отдельный список книги, которые теоретически могли бы быть мне интересны. Кое-что из списка может быть и есть в русском переводе, но в большинстве своём эти романы никогда не переводили, и не издавали, и вряд ли когда-нибудь издадут. Некоторых авторов вообще не переводили никогда, а некоторых бросили. Вот такой у меня получился виш-лист:
